In the fourth year of Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty, Yang Guozhong became the prime minister of the court, five years earlier than recorded in history.

The times create heroes, and history will change. Even if a little butterfly flaps its wings, it may be the source of the hurricane.

The reason why Yang Guozhong showed up early was because of the secret push by Guo Ziyi and his wife, but the people in the world could only see through the appearance and believed that this was caused by the emperor's favor.

A former slutty man who was promoted and promoted rapidly in two years, and also held fifteen official positions, becoming the most powerful person in the entire court.

Prime Minister, the head of officials!

...

Once a small person succeeds, he will become very arrogant.

Just the second day after becoming prime minister, Yang Guozhong immediately put up a big banquet at home, sent out countless invitations, inviting officials to come.

Since ancient times, when I posted invitations to invite people to banquets, the words on the posts were generally very elegant. However, the invitation sent by Yang Guozhong highlighted the faces of the nouveau riche between the lines...

And, the urgency to make a fortune!

"I am happy that the emperor is honored, so how can the officials not congratulate me? I will hold a banquet at home tonight, and the beautiful girl from the forest. I hope you will come on time, so don't delay the time."

"Since ancient times, there have been words that have been exchanged with etiquette. If the person who is so sincere in holding a banquet, how can those who come to our door be empty-handed?"

"He Yi cannot avoid it, otherwise I will not look good on my face. It is not possible to have less He Yi, otherwise I will be very unhappy. If I am unhappy, I will not cry."

Anyone can guess the first two paragraphs of this invitation are ghostwriters. After all, the vocabulary is a bit so sophisticated, and it is definitely not written by someone like Yang Guozhong who is ignorant.

It is obvious that the last paragraph of this invitation is Yang Guozhong's own words, and the words are extremely vulgar and worthy of being a rude man.

...

Many invitations were sent out, and almost all the officials in Chang'an received them.

Even Guo Ziyi, who was hiding in the other courtyard, was sent an invitation post.

After reading it, Guo Ziyi was a little amused and couldn't help but say to Yang Yuhuan: "Compared with Yang Guozhong's scoundrels, I suddenly realized that the character of a reckless man is not good enough. Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world. I should have made myself a scoundrel at the beginning."

Yang Yuhuan smiled calmly and said, "The scoundrels and reckless men have the same skills, but Yang Guozhong is a real scoundrel, while Guo Ziyi is a fake reckless man. However, when it comes to people and things, scoundrels and reckless men are just as good as those of others and things. They are both very beneficial and convenient."

Guo Ziyi yelled twice, held the invitation and shook it, and said, "This guy wants to hold a big seat at home and make money blatantly. Please help me figure out whether I should go or not."

Yang Yuhuan said in a casual tone, saying, "Since he wants to make money, then cooperate with him to make money, just to give him some congratulations. Our family is not short of this little money now."

Guo Ziyi shouted and said, "I'm afraid I'm not enough to give some small money."

Yang Yuhuan pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then just make some powder of white rhinoceros horns, and pair it with the porcelain bottle that we just burned paper. The gimmick of peerless treasure medicine will surely make the guests tonight feel valuable."

Guo Ziyi laughed and nodded, "Even the guests feel valuable, people like Yang Guozhong must be very satisfied."

Yang Yuhuan got up and went back to the house. After a moment, he took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Guo Ziyi and said, "Remember to exaggerate it. There are few things in the sky and under the ground."

After thinking about it, he pondered and said, "You are not good at this kind of thing, let Guo Qi accompany you."

Guo Ziyi grabbed the porcelain bottle and shook her head and said, "Guo Qi is so nagging. You can keep my ears clean and purified... Or you can follow me, you are best at doing such things."

Yang Yuhuan smiled, pointed at his beautiful face, and said deliberately: "Aren't you afraid that Yang Guozhong would feel greedy in his heart when he saw my beauty?"

Guo Ziyi sneered and snorted coldly: "If he really doesn't open his eyes, I will let the rogue know what a reckless man is."

Yang Yuhuan shook his head and said, "It's better to have less than more things."

Guo Ziyi put the porcelain bottle in his arms and nodded, "Okay, I'll go by myself, and I'll observe the people who attend the banquet to see who are all interested in the flames and possess the power."

Yang Yuhuan looked at him and said, "Even you, the new governor, is going to the banquet. Who else dares to reject the invitation from a prime minister? So there is no need to observe, everyone is a person who is inclined to the flames and tyranny."

Guo Ziyi nodded again and pondered: "Will it look too shabby to bring only one porcelain bottle? Otherwise, you can get some money and let me bring the storefront with you..."

Yang Yuhuan rolled his eyes and said, "Don't even think about it. Our family's money was not blown by the strong wind. Give it to Yang Guozhong and give it to him for free."

Guo Ziyi hurriedly said: "I mainly want to serve as a storefront."

Yang Yuhuan had a suspicious face, and suddenly stared at Guo Ziyi up and down, saying, "You rarely care about money before, why do you keep asking me this time? Could it be that you want to go shopping in brothels, or secretly raise a mistress outside?"

Guo Ziyi said angrily: "If you don't give, don't give."

He turned around and left with a porcelain bottle in his arms, looking very strange in a hurry.

Yang Yuhuan frowned slightly, and always felt that Guo Ziyi was escaping and hiding. At this time, a figure flashed at the door. Linglong leaned over and said with a serious face: "Sister, have you noticed that this man has been wanting money recently. I suspect that there is a woman outside..."

"Yes, yes, yes, the son-in-law must be in the outdoor room!" A figure flashed at the door again, and two maids ran in and chattered, saying very confidently: "Once a man wants to use money, he will definitely spend it on the women outside."

Next was Princess Qingyang, who walked into the door with Xiaohu's head in her arms. The princess's face was very leisurely and said with a faint smile: "Don't tie men too hard. Smart women should learn to pretend to be stupid. After all, there is no cat in the world that doesn't eat fishy food."

Princess Linglong sneered and mocked: "You are probably laying the groundwork for yourself, but unfortunately you are already an old lady in his eyes."

Princess Qingyang smiled slightly and said deliberately: "But Guo Ziyi often says that I am defeated."

Princess Linglong was furious and said, "I have never heard him say this. You must be talking nonsense."

Yang Yuhuan looked at Guo Ziyi's departure and pondered: "He is really strange recently. Do you really want to raise a mistress?"

...

In the evening of that day, Zhuque Street in the city.

Countless luxury cars and horses came in a row. The servant in front of Yang Guozhong's mansion was arrogant and reflected the words of the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door. No matter what guests came, the servants were all receiving them.

On the contrary, the servants brought by the guests themselves, and after they arrived, they shouted loudly for the host family, reporting their identity and gifts.

"The Minister of Personnel went to the Prime Minister's Office and presented three top-quality pearls as a greeting ceremony to express his feelings."

"The Ministry of Justice, the Minister of Justice, went to the Prime Minister's Office and sent a cart of brocades in Jiangnan to express his feelings as a greeting ceremony."

"Taichang Temple Si Le, go to the banquet..."

"Dali Temple is in charge of punishment..."

He shouted one after another, and the carriages of gifts appeared lively and noisy in front of the entire Prime Minister's Mansion.

Suddenly, a man walked up the street, with a burly figure and a high-spirited aura. He neither took a car nor a servant followed him. He walked over and rushed over and arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion in a blink of an eye.

It is Guo Ziyi.

He reached into his arms, took out something, and said, "This is my gift, which servant is responsible for receiving the gift?"

The servant of the Yang family was above his eyes. Seeing that his gift was just a porcelain bottle, he immediately sneered: "Where are you from? It's so unruly. When he came to attend the banquet, he only brought one porcelain bottle."

Guo Ziyi continued to hand the porcelain bottle forward, and Dan Dan said, "Which servant is responsible for receiving the gifts?"

The servant of Yang's mansion was furious and avoided the porcelain bottle and glared at Guo Ziyi fiercely, saying, "I'm so poor, get back. With this gift, you are not qualified to attend the banquet."

"Is that true?" Guo Ziyi said with a smile: "Then I'll leave, I hope you don't stop me."

The servants in the Yang family sneered and said with disdain, "Who do you think you are? You deserve to stop us."

Guo Ziyi nodded and stopped quarreling with the servants, but said with a smile: "The etiquette has come, and I can't enter the door. Even if I meet Prime Minister Yang in the court in the future, he can't complain that I won't give him face... I went to the banquet, but I just couldn't enter the door."

As he said that, he turned to raise his foot and walked back slowly.

The servants in the Yang family sneered even more and said sarcastically: "A poor and pretending to behave, an official like you who doesn't even have a servant, actually boasted that he could meet my prime minister in the court... Blow it, blow it, I guess you are not qualified to enter the court at all."

It is indeed a nouveau riche family. The rise of too fast leads to the poor background. Not only Yang Guozhong is arrogant, but the servants at home are also proud.

No vision.

However, there are many people who understand to come to attend the banquet tonight.

Especially some people who were full of clinging to each other, thought it was a good opportunity to show their favor, so they hurriedly came up to them and lowered their voices to remind them: "All the officials of the Yang family, you are afraid that you have already caused trouble. This official is a minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and the official rank is the fifth rank. My identity should be qualified to remind you. I hope that the officials will invite that person back quickly."

The servant of Yang's mansion was slightly stunned, feeling a little weak, especially when he heard that this person was at the fifth rank of the official position, and he was able to enter the court level, so he felt more and more weak in his heart and couldn't help but say, "You...what do you mean? Why did we invite that person back?"

The official of the Ministry of Personnel looked solemn and pointed at Guo Ziyi who was leaving, and lowered his voice: "Do you know who that person is? That is Guo Ziyi from Shandong. He was just named the governor of Ziqing by His Majesty and became the eleventh vassal state of the Tang Dynasty..."

Several servants from the Yang Mansion were shocked, and their faces showed pale panic.

An official from the Ministry of Personnel whispered: "This man is so fast that he is not inferior to your prime minister. Besides, he is a general, and he is in charge of thousands of troops..."

"As the new military governor of the vassal state, he was able to come to congratulate you to give your prime minister enough. You just shouted at him and even mocked him for not being qualified to attend the banquet."

"If this matter is heard by your prime minister, I'm afraid Prime Minister Yang will give you a pretext for family law first."

When the official of the Ministry of Personnel said this, the hint almost turned into an explicit statement, and kept urging: "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and chase after me. Whether you lower your head or bow your knees, you must invite people back. Don't let him get angry..."

He stopped and then whispered: "This Guo Ziyi is not a good-tempered person. Who in the world knows that he is a reckless man? If he was angry, he might have something to do."

"The reason why he didn't get angry with you is not that he has learned to suppress dissatisfaction, but that you are completely ineligible as servants."

"But if he is really angry and is ready to expose his anger, then the person he wants to do is probably Prime Minister Yang from your family."

The servant of Yang's mansion changed his face and subconsciously said, "He dares..." He wanted to say a tough word, but in just two words, he changed his taste: "Does he dare?"

The official of the Ministry of Personnel looked anxious and continued to urge: "What's wrong with him? He once beaten the Prince of Li to death on the Lantern Festival in Chang'an. He was the son of Prime Minister Li Linfu. Wasn't he still beaten to death by him in front of everyone?"

"Your Majesty, who killed the Prime Minister, protected him. Not only did he not punish him, but he took advantage of the opportunity of Wu Ke to be appointed as the general."

"Do you understand now? This man's emperor favor is not inferior to your prime minister. If he gets angry, wouldn't it be like making an innocent enemy for your prime minister?"

"Although Prime Minister Yang doesn't necessarily care about making enemies, Guo Ziyi is a vassal state after all. As servants, you make enemies for your master, Prime Minister Yang should do some gestures no matter what... For example, show me apologies to Guo Ziyi."

"It's very simple for a big man to do a gesture, and it's also very simple to show off his regret, but for a small man, it might be a life that can be killed by a stick."

The official of the Ministry of Personnel talked for a long time and found that the servants of the Yang Mansion were still motionless. Although they were all pale, they pretended to be confident and said one after another: "We...we are not afraid of him, we are from the Prime Minister's Mansion."

The official of the Ministry of Personnel looked speechless, and finally couldn't help but cling to his heart and said directly: "Forget it, I'm here for you. Although I am a fifth-rank official, I'm not worthy of being proud of myself in front of a military governor. I went to whisper to him and begged him to come back to attend the banquet... But you must remember that if I can persuade him to come back later, you must not be sarcastic. Guo Ziyi is a reckless man. He will not worry about you being a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion when he gets angry."

The servants of the Yang family swallowed their saliva nervously and said quietly: "Then...then, please help."

The official of the Ministry of Personnel turned around and hurriedly chased out without hesitation.

In fact, if Guo Ziyi wanted to leave, he would have been gone in the past half a day, but he deliberately walked slowly, as if he was shopping. The reason was very simple, he was sure that someone would come to chase him.
